The Arkansas Tech basketball teams will support Project: Feed Arkansas on Thursday by wearing orange shooting shirts for their doubleheader against Christian Brothers at Tucker Coliseum. The games start with the Suns and Lady Buccaneers at 5:30 p.m.

Fans are encouraged to donate a canned or non-perishable food item upon admission. Admission is $5 for adults and $3 for non-Tech students and senior citizens with a donation.

"I'm hoping we are able to raise awareness about hunger and also benefit the Arkansas Rice Depot by wearing the orange shooting tops," Kristy Bayer, Tech's assistant athletic director and head volleyball coach, said. "The Tech Athletic Department's Project: Feed Arkansas initiative has been a huge success this year, and we're looking to continue that on Thursday night."

During the game, fans can bid on the special edition orange shooting shirts, donated by Terra Renewal, in a silent auction. The bidding will begin at $20 and all proceeds will benefit the Arkansas Rice Depot to combat hunger relief.

Thursday's game with Christian Brothers will be the final game of a three-game homestand for both the Golden Suns and Wonder Boys. The fifth-ranked Golden Suns (18-2, 7-1 GSC West) have won 30 consecutive home games dating to the 2008-09 season and are tied for first place in the GSC West Division standings, while the 15th-ranked Wonder Boys (17-3, 8-0) have won 11 straight games since falling 83-76 at home to then sixth-ranked Alabama-Huntsville on Dec. 16.

The CBU Lady Buccaneers enter the game sporting an 8-12 overall record and a 1-7 mark in the GSC, while the CBU Buccaneers are 16-6 overall and 4-4 in the GSC. Thursday's game will be the second meeting this season between the teams as the Golden Suns picked up an 88-67 win in Memphis, while the Wonder Boys earned a 59-45 upset win over then 14th-ranked CBU in Memphis on Jan. 13.

Fans unable to attend Thursday's games are welcome to call in their bid for the orange shooting shirts to the Tech Athletic Department Office at 968-0345. The auction opens at 5 p.m. and will conclude at halftime of the Wonder Boys game.
